Biggest, Strongest, Fastest -- Steve Jenkins

<p>The biggest snake, the anaconda, can swallow a deer or goat whole. The smallest mammal, the Etruscan shrew, could easily sleep in a teaspoon. In a striking full-color collage, each spread of <i>Biggest, Strongest, Fastest</i> portrays an animal that stands out in the animal world as the largest, slowest, longest lived. Readers can see the animal's size in relation to something familiar, and a chart on the last page indicates the size, weight, and diet of each animal, as well as where it can be found in the wild. <i>Biggest, Strongest, Fastest</i> is an entertaining, informative introduction to the world records held by fourteen members of the animal kingdom.<br><br><b>Author:</b> Steve Jenkins<br><b>Publisher:</b> Clarion Books<br><b>Published:</b> 03/27/1995<br><b>Pages:</b> 32<br><b>Binding Type:</b> Hardcover<br><b>Weight:</b> 0.80lbs<br><b>Size:</b> 8.28h x 10.58w x 0.40d<br><b>ISBN:</b> 9780395697016<br><b>Audience:</b> Ages 4-8<br><br><b>Accelerated Reader:</b><br><b>Reading Level:</b> 2.3<br><b>Point Value:</b> 0.5<br><b>Interest Level:</b> Lower Grade<br><b>Quiz #/Name: </b>17305 / Biggest, Strongest, Fastest<br><br><b>Award:</b> Black-Eyed Susan Award - Nominee<br><br><b>Review Citation(s): </b><br><i>School Library Journal</i> 05/01/1995 pg. 99<br><i>Booklist</i> 02/01/1995 pg. 1003<br><i>Booklist Ed Choice Youth</i> 01/01/1996 pg. 743<br><i>Hornbook Guide to Children</i> 01/01/1995 pg. 349 - Superior,Well Above Average
